Western Australian Consolidated Regulations Western Australian Consolidated Regulations (1) If a distributor
is obliged under regulation 7(1) to energise premises, it is required to
do so before the time limit imposed by subregulation (2).
(2) The time limit
under this subregulation is —
(a) if
the premises are within the metropolitan area —
(i)
the end of the first business day after the day on which
the application under regulation 7(1) is received if it is received
before 3 p.m. on a business day;
(ii)
the end of the second business day after the day on which
the application under regulation 7(1) is received if it is received on a
business day, but not before 3 p.m., or on a day that is not a business day;
(b) if
the premises are not within the metropolitan area —
(i)
the end of the fifth business day after the day on which
the application under regulation 7(1) is received if it is received
before 3 p.m. on a business day;
(ii)
the end of the sixth business day after the day on which
the application under regulation 7(1) is received if it is received on a
business day, but not before 3 p.m., or on a day that is not a business day,
or any later time to
which the customer agrees in writing.
(3) If, during any of
the time that this regulation gives the distributor for energising the
premises, any written law prevents the distributor from doing so,
subregulation (2) applies as if the application under
regulation 7(1) were received when the written law ceases to prevent the
distributor from energising the premises.
